The sign with the hours. We made note of the closing time and went on our tour. There are so many things to see. We stopped several times and took short little walks.

One was to examine the new canoe trail. It is not fair to judge the trail with the water low. I did have a vision on paddling to the pond and sitting for an hour or two to see what wildlife would appear. While there we noted the time and realized we needed to leave. It was hard to focus on the gate when, if we took our eyes off the road, we would see something else to make us stop. And you guessed it, we saw

what we thought was a hole in the bank that an alligator might spend its nights. Wow! Oh! Look,

an alligator! Not a big fellow, but an alligator. What beautiful eyes. This is wonderful. The sun was shining on its eye. The sun was hidden by clouds and peeking in and out, just teasing us. Now, time is running our. The gate will close in about ten minutes. Well we made it to the gate with 10 seconds to spare. We sat there and thought about where we would go next and still the gate was open. We drove down the road to another landing and looked around. Driving back the gate was still open. We had plenty of water and energy bars, maybe we should have spent the night. Just kidding. Someone would have driven through to make sure no one was left in the area.
